Addictions Treatment by Type

If you are suffering from one or multiple addictions, treatment options are widely available. It is possible for individuals to become addicted to many different substances and develop many addictive behavior patterns, which is why there are wide arrays of treatment programs designed to handle virtually any form of addictive behavior. For some individuals, it is easy to determine the type of treatment needed. For example, individuals who have become addicted to narcotics know that their treatment program will likely involve some form of detoxification and psychiatric counseling. However, individuals with behavioral addictions may find it difficult to determine the type of treatment they need.

Detoxification and Counseling

Because substance abuse is so common, detoxification and counseling are popular forms of addiction treatment. The types of addictions that individuals have and the severity of their addictive behaviors will determine the length of their detoxification and the intensity of their counseling sessions. Counseling sessions generally continue long after the detoxification period has ended. Counseling helps individuals understand the cause of their addictive behaviors, and it also helps substance abusers to develop strategies that can help them to remain drug-free.

Cognitive-Behavioral Treatment

Cognitive-behavioral therapy is designed for individuals who are addicted to certain behaviors. Individuals who are addicted to sex, pornography, eating food or watching television must undergo cognitive treatment to understand the thought processes that lead to these behaviors. Cognitive-behavioral treatment can be very intense, but it can be extremely effective as well.

Family Intervention Therapy

Understanding Group Addiction Counseling

Group addiction counseling provides therapy that allows members to receive support from people with similar life experiences. Since addiction often leads to feelings of loneliness, depression, and inadequacy, group therapy can help the individual achieve a positive self image through affirmation and identification within the group.

Family intervention therapy occurs when one or multiple family members agree to take part in the addiction treatment process. They attend meetings, individual counseling sessions, group therapy sessions and medical appointments to support the individual who needs help conquering their substance abuse problem. Many facilities encourage family participation because treating addictions with the support of close family members and friends makes the process easier for many addicts. Individuals who struggle with substance abuse are sometimes in denial, which makes it difficult for them to accept help from friends and family members initially. Therefore, it is often necessary for one or multiple family members to intervene in order to get help for their loved one. The individual who needs help may be angry at first, but many addicts will eventually have a change of heart and will come to appreciate the individuals who supported them during difficult times.

Residential Treatment Programs

Residential treatment programs are live-in facilities designed for those who need around-the-clock care. These facilities provide a safe, supportive environment for individuals who desperately need to end their drug habit. Residential treatment facilities generally have staff physicians, addiction counselors and detoxification specialists available to assist patients. Clients generally stay at residential treatment centers for a minimum of three months, but they can stay for up to one year if they need severe help. Many clients choose to stay at residential treatment centers for a long time period because the environment is very supportive and encouraging. However, the client must eventually learn to function in society without abusing substances or displaying addictive behaviors, which is why most rehabilitation centers offer transitional services to clients. Individuals who are criminal offenders may have to stay at residential facilities for an extended time period due to a court order, but most clients will check out of the facility within one year.
